DELIVRANCE XÉNON OU ARGON GAZEUX A UN DONNEUR AVANT UN PRELEVEMENT DE  XENON OR GAS ARGON DELIVERANCE HAS A DONOR BEFORE TAKING
MATERIEL BIOLOGIQUE  BIOLOGICAL EQUIPMENT
La présente invention concerne un gaz ou mélange gazeux de xénon ou d'argon destiné à être administré à un donneur de matériel biologique, tel un organe ou des tissus, en particulier un être humain, préalablement au prélèvement dudit organe ou desdits tissus de manière à protéger ledit matériel biologique avant son extraction du corps. The present invention relates to a gas or gaseous mixture of xenon or argon for administration to a donor of biological material, such as an organ or tissues, in particular a human being, prior to the removal of said organ or tissues so as to protect said biological material prior to its extraction from the body.
Le prélèvement de matériel biologique, c'est-à-dire d'un ou plusieurs organes et/ou tissus, chez un individu, appelé donneur, est un acte chirurgical à finalité thérapeutique conduisant à une greffe, c'est-à-dire à la réimplantation du matériel biologique, appelé greffon, chez un autre individu, appelé receveur.  The collection of biological material, that is to say one or more organs and / or tissues, in an individual, called a donor, is a surgical procedure for therapeutic purpose leading to a transplant, that is to say the reimplantation of the biological material, called graft, into another individual called the recipient.
Afin d'éviter ou minimiser les détériorations de ce matériel biologique, c'est-à-dire de ces organes et/ou tissus, il est nécessaire de les protéger avec des solutions spécifiques, dites de préservation, voire avec des gaz spécifiques, avec lesquels les organes et/ou tissus sont mis en contact après leur prélèvement.  In order to avoid or minimize the deterioration of this biological material, that is to say of these organs and / or tissues, it is necessary to protect them with specific solutions, called preservation solutions, or even with specific gases, with which organs and / or tissues are brought into contact after being removed.
Ainsi, le document EP-A-2536272 enseigne une formulation liquide comprenant une solution liquide et au moins un gaz choisi parmi le xénon, l'argon, l'hydrogène, le H2S, l'hélium, le krypton, le néon, le radon ou le CO. Le gaz est dissous dans la solution liquide dite de conservation de sorte de conserver une matière biologique, en particulier des cellules, des tissus et des organes biologiques, en particulier un organe choisi parmi le cœur, le rein, le foie, le pancréas et l'intestin. De préférence, le gaz est de l'argon. Thus, EP-A-2536272 teaches a liquid formulation comprising a liquid solution and at least one gas chosen from xenon, argon, hydrogen, H 2 S, helium, krypton, neon, radon or CO. The gas is dissolved in the so-called liquid storage solution so as to preserve a biological material, in particular biological cells, tissues and organs, in particular an organ selected from the heart, the kidney, the liver, the pancreas and the body. 'intestine. Preferably, the gas is argon.
Or, entre le moment du prélèvement et la mise en contact du matériel biologique avec le milieu de conservation, il peut se produire des détériorations dudit matériel biologique, notamment des lésions d'ischémie-reperfusion qui sont délétères pour le matériel biologique.  However, between the time of sampling and the contact of the biological material with the preservation medium, there may be damage to said biological material, including ischemia-reperfusion injury which is deleterious to the biological material.
Le problème est dès lors de pouvoir éviter, réduire ou minimiser lesdites lésions d'ischémie-reperfusion en opérant une protection aussi tôt que possible du matériel biologique, notamment d'un organe.  The problem is therefore to be able to avoid, reduce or minimize said ischemia-reperfusion injury by protecting as soon as possible biological material, including an organ.
La solution de l'invention est une composition gazeuse contenant un composé gazeux actif choisi dans le groupe formé par Xe et Ar pour une utilisation pour prévenir ou minimiser une lésion d'ischémie-reperfusion d'un matériel biologique chez un individu donneur, lors et/ou consécutivement au prélèvement dudit matériel biologique chez ledit individu donneur, ladite composition gazeuse étant administrée à l'individu donneur préalablement au prélèvement du matériel biologique chez ledit individu donneur. Selon le cas, la composition gazeuse de l'invention peut comprendre l'une ou plusieurs des caractéristiques techniques suivantes : The solution of the invention is a gaseous composition containing an active gaseous compound selected from the group consisting of Xe and Ar for use in preventing or minimizing ischemia-reperfusion injury of biological material in a donor individual, during and or after the removal of said biological material from said donor individual, said gaseous composition being administered to the donor individual prior to the removal of the biological material from said donor individual. Depending on the case, the gaseous composition of the invention may comprise one or more of the following technical characteristics:
- le composé gazeux actif est de l'argon.  the active gaseous compound is argon.
- le composé gazeux actif est du xénon.  the active gaseous compound is xenon.

- elle est sous forme gazeuse et est administrée par inhalation au moyen d'un masque respiratoire ou une sonde d'intubation.  it is in gaseous form and is administered by inhalation by means of a respiratory mask or an intubation probe.
Plus généralement, dans le cadre de la présente invention, il a été mis en évidence que pour réduire les détériorations ou lésions résultant d'ischémies-reperfusions au sein d'organes ou autres tissus biologiques prélevés chez un individu donneur et destinés à être réimplantés et greffés chez un individu receveur, il convient d'agir préalablement à l'extraction chirurgicale desdits organes ou tissus biologiques en administrant une composition gazeuse protectrice à base de xénon ou d'argon au donneur.  More generally, in the context of the present invention, it has been demonstrated that to reduce deteriorations or lesions resulting from ischemia-reperfusions in organs or other biological tissues taken from a donor individual and intended to be reimplanted and grafted in a recipient individual, it is appropriate to act prior to the surgical extraction of said biological organs or tissues by administering a protective gaseous composition based on xenon or argon to the donor.
En d'autres termes, une composition gazeuse contenant un composé gazeux actif choisi dans l'argon et le xénon en mélange avec de l'oxygène, peut être utilisée dans une méthode de traitement thérapeutique visant à prévenir ou à minimiser une lésion d'ischémie-reperfusion d'un matériel biologique chez un individu donneur, tel un être humain, lors et/ou consécutivement au prélèvement dudit matériel biologique chez ledit individu donneur, dans laquelle la composition gazeuse est administrée à l'individu donneur, préférentiellement par inhalation, préalablement au prélèvement du matériel biologique chez ledit individu donneur. In other words, a gaseous composition containing an active gaseous compound selected from argon and xenon mixed with oxygen can be used in a therapeutic treatment method for preventing or minimizing ischemia injury. -reperfusion of biological material in a donor individual, such as a human being, during and / or consecutively sampling of said biological material from said donor individual, wherein the gaseous composition is administered to the donor individual, preferably by inhalation, prior to the removal of the biological material from said donor individual.
La durée d'administration du gaz, est aisément déterminable, via de simples essais de routine, en fonction de l'organe à extraire et de l'individu considéré.  The duration of administration of the gas is easily determined by simple routine tests, depending on the organ to be extracted and the individual considered.
L'invention concerne aussi un procédé pour prélever un matériel biologique chez un individu donneur dont le cœur est arrêté, caractérisé en ce qu'on administre audit individu donneur dont le cœur est arrêté, une composition gazeuse contenant un composé gazeux actif choisi dans le groupe formé par le xénon (Xe) et l'argon (Ar), préalablement et/ou lors du prélèvement dudit matériel biologique chez ledit individu donneur de manière à prévenir ou à minimiser une lésion d'ischémie-reperfusion dudit matériel biologique.  The invention also relates to a method for taking biological material from a donor individual whose heart is stopped, characterized in that said donor individual whose heart is stopped, a gaseous composition containing an active gaseous compound selected from the group formed by xenon (Xe) and argon (Ar), prior to and / or during removal of said biological material from said donor individual so as to prevent or minimize ischemia-reperfusion injury of said biological material.

Exemple illustratif Illustrative example
Afin de montrer l'efficacité d'une composition gazeuse selon l'invention formé d'un mélange gazeux de xénon ou d'argon, et d'oxygène pour prévenir ou minimiser les lésions d'ischémie-reperfusion d'un matériel biologique chez un individu donneur, à savoir ici les lésions d'ischémie-reperfusion des poumons de porcs et de souris, on a administré par inhalation les mélanges gazeux (Ar/02 et Xe/02) aux animaux anesthésiés (par propofol), préalablement au prélèvement de leurs poumons. In order to show the effectiveness of a gaseous composition according to the invention formed of a gaseous mixture of xenon or argon, and oxygen to prevent or minimize ischemia-reperfusion injury of a biological material in a individual donors, namely ischemia-reperfusion lesions of the lungs of pigs and mice, the gaseous mixtures (Ar / 0 2 and Xe / 0 2 ) were administered by inhalation to anesthetized animals (by propofol), prior to taking off their lungs.
La composition gazeuse est administrée aux animaux par inhalation, les animaux étant intubés et alimentés en gaz par un ventilateur respiratoire.  The gaseous composition is administered to the animals by inhalation, the animals being intubated and supplied with gas by a respiratory fan.
Les compositions testées contiennent des teneurs en Ar ou en Xe comprises entre 15 et 80%) en volume, le reste étant de l'oxygène. Ici, l'administration du gaz a débuté environ 30 minutes, avant le prélèvement de leurs poumons. Toutefois, cette période peut varier de quelques minutes à plusieurs heures. The compositions tested contain levels of Ar or Xe of between 15 and 80% by volume, the balance being oxygen. Here, the administration of the gas began about 30 minutes before the removal of their lungs. However, this period can vary from a few minutes to several hours.
Ensuite, on opère un prélèvement virtuel des poumons des animaux par clampage des poumons, des artères et veines reliées aux poumons de manière à obtenir une exclusion totale des poumons du corps des animaux de manière identique à une extraction réelle.  Then, a virtual harvest of the animal's lungs is performed by clamping the lungs, arteries and veins connected to the lungs so as to obtain a total exclusion of the lungs from the body of the animals in a manner identical to an actual extraction.
Une fois le clampage réalisé, on attend pendant une période d'environ 90 minutes, puis on opère un déclampage des poumons, veines et artères.  Once the clamping is done, one waits for a period of approximately 90 minutes, then one operates a declamping of the lungs, veins and arteries.
Un groupe d'animaux témoins est traité de la même manière mais avec des mélanges gazeux d'azote et d'oxygène (N2/02) dans les mêmes proportions. A group of control animals is treated in the same way but with gaseous mixtures of nitrogen and oxygen (N 2 / O 2 ) in the same proportions.
Ensuite, des tests de la fonction ventilatoire des poumons sont réalisés.  Then, tests of the ventilatory function of the lungs are carried out.
Puis, les animaux sont sacrifiés et es poumons sont extraits et soumis à des études anatomiques pour déterminer l'état ischémique, c'est-à-dire la présence de lésions éventuelles dues à la période d'ischémie-reperfusion.  Then, the animals are sacrificed and the lungs are extracted and subjected to anatomical studies to determine the ischemic state, ie the presence of any lesions due to the period of ischemia-reperfusion.
Les résultats obtenus montrent que les compositions selon l'invention, à base d'argon ou de xénon, diminuent les lésions d'ischémie-reperfusion, et leurs conséquences sur le bon fonctionnement des poumons, contrairement aux animaux du groupe témoin ayant inhalé des mélanges à base d'azote.  The results obtained show that the compositions according to the invention, based on argon or xenon, reduce the ischemia-reperfusion lesions, and their consequences on the good functioning of the lungs, unlike the animals in the control group having inhaled mixtures based on nitrogen.
Ces essais montrent l'intérêt à administrer une composition gazeuse selon l'invention à un individu donneur préalablement au prélèvement du matériel biologique chez ledit individu donneur.  These tests show the interest in administering a gaseous composition according to the invention to a donor individual prior to the removal of the biological material from said donor individual.
